Bring milk to a boil in a large pan.
Just before the milk starts to boil, add the lemon juice or vinegar to coagulate the milk.
Pour the coagulated milk through a cheese cloth to discard most of the water within.
Press the water out firmly and place a weight on top of the paneer.
Allow to rest and harden for 2–3 hours in the refrigerator.
